Notes

• Any one of the fields end, duration, or allDay is required.
• The allowed units in duration are listed here: https://day.js.org/docs/en/durations/creating#list-of-all-available-units.
• The url field defaults to document.URL if a global document object exists. For server-side rendering, you should supply the url manually. Not all calendars support the guests and url fields.
• If you don't pass the start and end time in UTC, Google will convert it to UTC but Outlook won't, so it's a good idea to use UTC when passing dates and times
